Steel Beasts Dynamic Terrain Will Come After New Terrain Engine

Just wanna say that the forums and posts by the friendly gaming Community on DOWVU are a blast of healthy, invigorating and fresh air. They make my day...any day.

Yes here is definitely nothing like the SB forum and community.

You both said it.

For the bigger scenarios, CPU limitation would be more typical I'd say. I don't know what your budget is; while we're gradually implementing more parallelization in the coming years it's still not something that will happen fast; to that extent it's probably still valid to favor CPUs which, for the same price, offer a bit more single thread performance. But where this might really become noticeable the CPU prices are also pretty high, so this may be an entirely academic debate for you.
Personally I'd be tempted to try out the new AMD CPUs combined with a matching AMD GPU, and be it just to send a message to Intel to get their act together. Their price levels appear to be very attractive.

Habemus candidatus emittandus - version 4.156

With this version we have essentially stopped tinkering and trying to fix bugs. We're going to kick the tires until tomorrow (another all-nighter, yay...), then send it off for the USB stick production, and test it more thoroughly for another week. Getting here took us a few days longer than anticipated. Since we don't want to release immediately before a weekend (so we're ready to to support the initial peak in support cases), this means that release day will be Monday 29th.

I think Ssnake is actually referring to the 16 GB map folder, since the installer itself should be released on the already announced release date.

Yeah, we wanted to be ready in early July, but then a few last-minute bugs popped up, so we're only today ready to start the production of the USB sticks. On Monday at least the installation files will be available for download. If downloading 19 GByte is not an option for you then yes, there will be a delay before your shipment arrives.

I've decided to cobble together some "scrapbook" video with bits and pieces that haven't been mentioned properly; I deliberately left a few juicy bits for another Youtuber but apparently that's not going to materialize.

Creating something that is properly story-driven would cost more time than I have though, and probably force me to make two videos - another one in Finland, and one in Africa, and you wouldn't then get to see other terrain themes. So I'm not doing that.

I also noticed the new chain-link fences, which I will be able to check off my wish list.

The fences are actually cyclone wire mesh fences, but they're good enough for me to check chain-link fences off my wish list.

Also, discussion of round counter on the call for fire menu and a new camera animation tool, starting here: https://www.steelbeasts.com/topic/12776-sb-pro-pe-41-new-features-and-stuff/page/22/?tab=comments#comment-192685
